Preparation

Heat oil in large pot over medium heat. Add onions; sauté until soft, about 8 minutes. Add zucchini and potato; stir to coat. Add 4 cups broth and bring soup to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until potato is soft, about 15 minutes. Working in batches, puree soup in blender until smooth, adding some spinach and cilantro to each batch. Return puree to same pot. Thin with more broth by 1/4 cupfuls, if desired. Season soup with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill until cold, then cover and keep refrigerated. Rewarm soup before serving.)

I agree this soup was not bland, I did add a Jalapeño to just add a little heat and served it garnished with a dolop of sour cream. Great soup for the week of Passover

I've made this soup many times through the years and everyone loves it and I don't change a thing. No one complains its bland. Everyone loves how fresh and healthy it is for you. Gluten-free before it was trendy. I call it the Green Goddess soup.

I added garlic as other reviewers suggested and replaced the cilantro (which I don't like) with dill. Pretty good, but I will continue experimenting with the spices and herbs.

This was my first attempt at making a smooth soup. Generally, I'm not a fan of these types since their texture is rather boring, but I had a garden's bounty of zucchini to use. I have to say, I was concerned with the amount of cilantro called for but it was fine! I only noticed a dim aftertaste of cilantro. Per the reviews left by others, I tried every side that was recommended: lime, yogurt, sour cream, croutons, garlic salt, and curry powder (all separate, of course). All of them were equally appealing, so give it a try! I'm going to experiment with some bacon bits for a topping and some crusty bread as a side next!

Was looking for something creative and delicious to do as we have zucchini coming out of our ears from the garden. Loved this idea and recipe. I added some fresh minced ginger - it was fantastic!! I used a cuisinart stainless steel hand blender which worked perfect.
